Ringo does!  Not because he needs it, but because he thinks it’s hip.

 

What other type of berry is mentioned in Strawberry Fields Forever , and what did people mishear the statement as?

Gooseberry. People thought John pinched a Bee-Gee’s ass.

What did John name his first cat?

It was thirty-six hours. They were recording the first 200 takes of Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da . Paul decided that none of them were good enough. 

 

What was the shortest recording session and what made it so short?

Their first album was recorded in twenty minutes; the second one took even longer They recorded a ten-second-long band demo of ‘This Song’s Just Six Words Long’. ‘Weird’ Al Yankovic later embellished it. 

 

Why would John rather see his little girl dead than to be with another man?

Because John was very insecure and controlling

 

Why did John call Paul daft and why did he use the more formal “daft” instead of the informal “daffy”?

So Paul didn’t start thinking he was Daffy Duck.

 

Why didn’t George get credited for cowriting Octopus’s Garden

Because , if it was up to him, it would have been called ‘Squid’s Back Alley’. 

Why was Ringo not given a song to sing on A Hard Day’s Night ?

Cause his nose was so big that it kept bumping the mic.

Who did John and Paul meet that gave them the inspiration for She Said She Said .

She Said She, a Mongolian countess of Saudi Arabia. Apparently She Said She  said that she knew what it was like to be dead. 

 

Which was the shortest Beatle, and how short was he?

Yes, but she forgot to open up her eyes and kept bumping into things.

What did Mean Mr Mustard donate to The National Trust?

Ahhh Girl asked and

Shamrock Womlbs answered 

About paying taxes and dunnowhat about donating to the church or something like that.

To be specific, he said, ‘Oh, Father, Father, stick a little five-bob in the box, it’ll be all right…’

Zig inquired indiscreetly 

What did Mean Mr Mustard donate to The National Trust?  

As per Father McKenzie’s advice, he stuck a little five-bob in the donation box, keeping the ten-bob note up his nose. 

 

Tomorrow is a Beatle’s wedding anniversary. Which Beatle is it, and who did he marry?
